Is He My Father
Is He My Father
'How dare you stop my hand!, lousy women''. Resonating in his head
continuously hindered Sam from concentrating on what was the chapter's
summary. He tried million of times to focus on the book but in vain. He can't
forget the scene he just saw ten minutes before. Now he just only wished '' What
if he never had a Dad, it would be a way more better than this''. Flooded with
memories and emotions, countless emotions, He tried to wipe it but can't,
instead it started picturizing before his two sparkling eyes.
Just fifteen minutes ago he had a glance of wall clock, 11:24pm, mom dad must
have slept and I should too finish my work quickly, he thought to himself.
Summer nights aren't quiet as winter's, he could hear the dogs barking across
the streets, a little chirping of lizards which actually irritated him a little.
''aaagggghhhh, oh hunger pangs,he chuckled. He stood up, wore his fluffy
slippers , opened his room's door and headed towards the kitchen to get
something for him. He crossed the stairs carefully. Without making any note he
passed the hall and entered the kitchen. He gave refrigerator a smile, the smile
suddenly vanished when he heard a scream coming from the other side. He
turned around and rushed toward his parent's room, Before he could knock and
ask 'bout anything, another louder scream , filled him with horror. It was a
man's voice. He didn't wanted to think that its his father but, he could recognize
his voice, still he looked from the key hole.
Shocked with what he saw, he ran with all his strength, entering his room he
shut the door and locked it. Breathing heavily, and tears rolling down his cheeks
he looked at the photo of his father hung on the wall just behind his study
table. This is the man I admired for so long, this is him I always wanted to be?. Is
that him? Is that him? ...Is he my Father? ..
Tears were rolling down his cheeks, That man who is supposed to be my father
and husband to my mother was burning her arm with his cigarettes!!!, is that for
real ??. he was asking himself all this as if it were unbelievable for him.so was it! ,
unrealistic, he stood up wiped his tears and got back to his work. Thinking this
may distract him from all this and he may forget what just happened.
Sam, was the only child of Emma and Justin .They were a happy family, at least
Sam thought they were a happy family, they had a pretty good life. Emma and
Justin were married for 20 years.
Emma was an ambitious girl she always wanted to be a journalist but
unfortunately after the death of his father who was his only supporter in this.Her
mother pushed her for marriage. She didn't wanted to marry instead wanted to
follow her dreams. It was Christmas when her aunt introduced Justin to her
mother. A handsome looking guy with a settled business, appeared a perfect
match for Emma, according to her mother, but she was persistent for her career
right now. Her mother persuaded her saying that she could fulfill her dreams
even after marriage and she also talked about this to Justin. He had no problem
with this.
THE END.
